| Abstract: | This paper investigates input and output efficiency in the Turkish banking industry to understand the impact of size, international variables, ownership, control and governance on profit, cost, allocative, technical, pure technical and scale efficiency measures. Employing a non-parametric approach along with a parametric approach, the authors estimate the efficiency of Turkish banks over the 1988-1996 period. This period allows us to account for the changes in the macro economy and regulatory treatment of the Turkish banking industry over time. The authors' results suggest that the heterogeneous characteristics of banks have significant impact on their efficiency. |
